Question
- which enzyme facilitates the movement of chemical groups from one molecule to another?
transferases
isomerases
hydrolases
oxidoreductases
Brief Explanations
Transferases are enzymes that catalyze the transfer of functional groups (such as methyl, acyl, amino, or phosphate groups) from one molecule (the donor) to another molecule (the acceptor). Isomerases catalyze the rearrangement of bonds within a single molecule to form an isomer. Hydrolases catalyze the hydrolysis of bonds (e.g., ester, peptide, glycosidic bonds) by adding water. Oxidoreductases catalyze oxidation - reduction reactions.
